Summary

the enslaving After Dark Games keep you up till the morning light

The Good

I liked (and still like) especially the fluid, neatly rounded, motion of the pictures, and the selection of games. Each of the played tunes is happy and uplifting. It is a unique set of games, and there are eleven of them, which means that you cannot easily tire of them.

The Bad

That it is not possible to recall a certain game of solitaire once you have finished playing. But perhaps this is asking too much, considering the size of the game.

I can find no further flaws.

But, there is a question bothering me: HOW SOON CAN WE EXPECT A LARGER PACKAGE, WITH MORE HANDPICKED AND SUPERB LITTLE GAMES?

The Bottom Line

A small wonder-package, which contains all those games which quickly de-stress a wound up person. Some are classics in their own right: Solitaire, Roofrats, Mowing maniac and Mooshu, though known under other names elsewhere. Other games, such as Hula girl and Bad dog 911, are quite original as far as I know. But make no mistake: all eleven games are equally enslaving!

My favourite is 'roofrats' . When you play this game all figures that you rescue by collapsing the buildings have their own sound. The dogs bark, the mice peep and the little ''woow' s and shy 'thank you"'s of the grannies always make me laugh.

The After Dark Games come with very nice graphics, sound and music. A must for everyone who sets out for that proverbial uninhibited island.
